21 Memos from a Child

February 4, 2009

When we were about to go out from the pedia clinic, I saw this “21 Memos from a Child” posted at the doctor’s door. While I was reading the first lines, I thought of copying them all but I know I didn’t have the time. So, when I remembered it this afternoon, I tried to search for it. Luckily I was able to find a copy of it and a video. Most of them have no idea who authored this, so I don’t know who to credit it too but the video was taken from YouTube uploaded by garachi2007.

If you are a parent, this is a must read “MEMO.” You can also watch the video presentation if you want to enjoy a little background music.

“21 Memos from a Child”

1. Don’t spoil me. I know quite well that I ought not have all that I ask for. I’m only testing you.

2. Don’t be afraid to be firm with me, I prefer it. It makes me feel more secure.

3. Don’t make me form bad habits. I have to rely on you to detect them in the early stages.

4. Don’t make me feel smaller than I am. It only makes me behave stupidly “big”.

5. Don’t correct me in front of people if you can help it. I’ll take much more notice if you talk quietly with me in private.

6. Don’t make me feel that my mistakes are sins. It upsets my sense of values.

yeah that’s right,sometimes we parents exploiting the rights of a child,they need to know everything and rely on us in small things,they’re just a little discoverer and and explorer,we might sometimes overreact on every thing they do but they can make it just a little time to give……anyway mom is a mom no one can replace…:)
